Schlagwerk - Percussion handmade in Germany.

Percussion handmade in Germany

25 years ago Schlagwerk Percussion was born (at the time modestly known as Schlagwerk Klangobjekte). Gerhard Priel and Bengt Schumacher put all of their energy and enthusiasm into this new business which specialised in the manufacture and development of wooden percussion instruments. In the first few years, the focus was on the manufacture of professional Log Drums. It was a novelty in the therapeutic and educational fields, the first target group of the young company. However, active musicians quickly became interested in this high-quality instrument. In the following years, we expanded our range to include Frame Drums, Udu® Drums, small percussion and Cajones. In 1986, we laid the foundation for the most successful percussion instrument in recent years with the introduction of the first Schlagwerk Cajon. In the early 90s, the Cajon la Perù® set the standard for sound and quality of themodern Cajon. This resulted in increasing international recognition for Schlagwerk Percussion.
